Lets's calculate LCM of 488,609
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 297192
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/297192
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8690/488,5246/609 is 2/297192
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 488,609 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(488,609) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(488,609) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(488,609) = ( 488 × 609 ) / 1
LCM(488,609) = 297192 / 1
LCM(488,609) = 297192
